That is why the siddha who knows yoga conquers death by preserving the bindu.Death comes from the loss of the bindu, life from the retention of the bindu.

This verse concludes the section on Vajrolī by reaffirming its fundamental principle.The chiastic structure—death by loss, life by retention—creates a memorable parallel that encapsulates the entire teaching.

Yogavit siddhaḥ — the siddha who knows yoga — indicates that it is not enough to practice mechanically;understanding is required (vid = know).Only those who understand the why behind the technique can apply it effectively.

Mṛtyuṃ jayati binduṃ rakṣet — conquer death by preserving the bindu — summarizes the objective.The “conquest of death” can be understood literally (extreme longevity) or spiritually (transcendence of identification with the mortal).

Maraṇaṃ bindu-pātena jīvanaṃ bindu-dhāraṇāt — death by loss, life by retention — is the fundamental formula.This teaching is not limited to Vajrolī’s technical practice;It is a universal principle applicable to all forms of energy conservation, from brahmacarya (celibacy) to the control of vṛttis (mental fluctuations) that dissipate prāṇa.
